Claims Trust Funds Held by Mother.
A Norwulk case of interest was tried
“in the Superior Court yesterday be-
fore Judge ShumWay. The plaintiff
is Charles H. Benedict, who is bring-
ing! suit against his cousins for his
patrimony. in 1886 his aunt. Cornelia
Benedict; died. leaving a will in which
she. gave 3] .200 to Charles Benedict.
which sum he wpu to have when he
reached his twenty‘llfth year. and p101}
lug tliersum in trust with his uncle.
John ,L. Hayes. Who was executor of
the will. Mr. Hayesivas a New York

Kip; condition thatvshe would fulfil the

conditions of _the,,..,lir_ust. .Which‘ she
‘ ' agreed to do. ‘lllhcmorwalk ploportl'

ovar.‘ Hayes was valued at $2.500.

Miss Hayes in turn deeded the proper-

ty‘to her niecean‘d nephew. Helena and

Edwilrd C. 'l‘lnkhain. and the plaintlu

claims that the transfer of this propor-
' ty was‘also on condition that Charles

Benedict should get’what was due him.
Attorney .l. J. Walsh represents the
plaintiff. and General Frost is for me
defendants. They claim that the only
condition under which be and his sis-
ter got the property from Miss Hayes
was that they were to pay the debts
» . against the estate. which amounted to
~ ‘ $2,000. and the condition that they
were to give anything to the plaintiff.
Attorney Walsh produced it letter in
courtwhich was written by E. C,
Tlnkhnm. one of the defendants, dated
June 21. 1897. in which ’I‘lnkham states
that Charles Benedict was after his
money and that. something must be
done to raise the money.

The attorney for the plaintiff ls also
ondeavoring to show that there were
some peculiar details with the Norwnlk
property. He is attempting to show
that 'l‘lnkhom got the $2.000 by giving
a warantee deed of the prepcrty. but
the defense claim that they simply
borrowed the money. The suit was
brought in February. 1897. and the lol-
lowlng mouth the mortgage dccd
against the property was out on tile.
said deed bearing date of i896.

“Good Thing."

 

 

Attorney '5). T. Buckingham. of

the victim, the latter part of the week,
of one of the shrowdost llim-iium
games which has beenworkod in that
city. for a long time, the {it'ldgcport
Farmer says. As a result he is out
about $35. but is not mourning the loss.
as heuuys he was taught a good les-
son. From the way in which he was
bamboozled. there is no doubt sevcrui
other attorneys in the city would have
been taken in if approached.

Last Friday afternoon about 1. a

At 6 the some evening he called at
the Y. M. C. A. rooms and asked the
socrctary if he could recommend a
good, honest lawyer. He stated that
be had been loft a large. legacy by the
death of an uncle in. England. and
wanted a lawyer in this city to luck
after his interests. Attorney Bucking»
hum was recommended. The young
man. whose complexion was light. was
attired in overalls; flannel shirt and
under cool. He said that he was em-
ployed in a cutlery establishment in
East Bridgeport. He had an English
accent.

At 6 the some evonin. he called at
tho residence of Mr. iiimdtiiigham. The
latter was out. The stronger said he
would call at R in the morning. This
attorney remained at his homo, until
nearly ii. and then as no «me had
called went to his office. At 12 he
wont to dinner. and at i started back
to the office again. While he was
waiting for a car. the young man put in
an appearance. Mr. Buckingham
stopped with him into a nearby drug
store. and the stronger Climb to the
point at once.

his mother, in Manchester, ‘lngland.
the contonis informing him. in damn,
that ho had been left 769.000 pounds.
Mr, Buckingham perused the letter
carefully: he saw that it was quite
plausible, and asked the young man
what he could do for him. He replied
that be was looking for an honest
lawyer. who would look after his in-
terests in the matter. and that the
secretary of the Y. M. C. A. bad rec-
ommended Mr. Buckingham.

In the letter the wruur spoke about

told the young man to call at his ufillui
